Honda engineers are hard at work testing a refreshed Acura MDX and seen here are first photos of running prototypes. Design-wise, the major changes seem to be limited to the front end. We can see through the camouflage that a new grill is definitely in the works. It appears to be a very similar grill to the one on the all-new 2009 TL. We'd speculate that redesigned headlights and a revised lower bumper fascia are also in order, however, it's not clear if there will be any changes under the hood, despite statements from Honda saying they'd like to offer a V6 diesel in the MDX by 2010 or 2011.

Nice front camo, but Why do all cars have audi style taillights?

That's what I was thinking, nice touch with those Audi taillights, someone might actually mistake this car for something with a bit more class.

I think it looks fine too.. Just lower the price so that it fill in the segment between the Kia Serento and an ML.

The American perception of a good handling car is far differrent everywhere else in the world.

And thank god it's not being sold in my country as well. The Lexus behemoths are bad enough.
